Chapter 468 Hot Pot
"You did it on purpose! Buyer, you definitely did it on purpose!"
Furninda was so angry that she put the meat that Nashida had prepared for her in the bowl into her mouth and glared at Nashida angrily.
"If you don't want to, I can let Xiaobai cook it for you, but don't regret it~"
In response, Nashida smiled happily and said.
"Really?"
Funina's eyes lit up, this was what Buyer said himself!
"Yes, if you don't regret it."
Narcida nodded affirmatively.
"Well... forget it."
Nashida didn't look like she was joking, but Furninha still shook her head. After all, the bet had been made.
"Wise choice."
Nashida nodded and spoke seriously.
If Liu Bai helps to cook the meat, it will...
"They have a really good relationship..."
Looking at the closeness between the three people, Kamisato Ayaka felt a little envious.
As the eldest daughter of a prominent family, Kamisato Ayaka has no close friends. Her status and etiquette have bound her since childhood.
Thomas is already Kamisato Ayaka's best friend among non-relatives, but he is also a member of the society after all, and Kamisato Ayaka also has to be careful not to lose the etiquette of a young lady, so it is difficult for her to get along with her as frankly as the three people in front of her.
When eating, Liu Bai no longer paid attention to the outsiders at the table. He ate whatever Nashida picked up. Sometimes, she didn't even put the food in the bowl. He would just open his mouth when Nashida picked up the food.
Even Nashida wouldn't let him cook the meat himself, at most she would just let him pick up the meatballs that were put into the pot to cook.
Kamisato Ayaka seldom saw others being so intimate, and although the excessive intimacy made her face slightly red, she was quite happy to see it, and her appetite even improved.
While Nashida was not paying attention, Funina secretly picked up a meatball from the pot and handed it to Liu Bai.
"Ow~"
A little head popped out from behind Liu Bai, took a bite of the meatball that Funina had passed to him, and rubbed Liu Bai's face while eating it happily.
Then, Nashida used chopsticks to hold back the meatball she had taken a bite of and returned to her seat to eat.
Each of these beef meatballs was quite big, and Nashida could only bite a little at a time.
"So cute..."
Watching Nashida eating Fernina's meatballs, even though she knew that she was the Goddess of Grass, Kamisato Ayaka couldn't help but have such thoughts.
As if by some strange coincidence, Kamisato Ayaka also tried to pick up a meatball and passed it to Nashida...
Since Kamisato Ayaka personally does not like eating animal organs and fat, the ingredients for the hot pot do not include tripe or the like. Most of them are fresh meat and various meatballs, radishes, and various vegetables.
"?"
After sitting back in her original seat and eating the meatballs bite by bite, Nashida noticed the actions of Kamisato Ayaka next to her.
"what……"
Only then did Kamisato Ayaka come back to her senses from her confused state. After realizing what she was doing, she blushed and tried to pull her hand back.
But Nashida picked up the chopsticks and took the meatball she was holding as she retracted her hand.
"Thank you."
Nashida said to Kamisato Ayaka with a smile.
“No, you’re welcome…”
Kamisato Ayaka lowered her head and responded somewhat awkwardly.
"Ok?"
Seeing that both Funina and Kamisato Ayaka were feeding Nashida, Liu Bai picked up the meatballs without being outdone.
"Well, even though I look like a child, don't just pick up meatballs for me, I want to eat meat too... Awooo~"
Nashida reminded Liu Bai a little depressed, but still opened her mouth and bit the third meatball.
She didn't have a big appetite to begin with, and she was almost full after eating three meatballs.
"Because your mouth is so small, you can only bite the meatballs slowly and in small bites, which looks very cute."
Liu Bai immediately answered seriously.
"...?"
Nashida couldn't help but tilt her head at Liu Bai's straightforward words.
"But since you want it, I'll give it to you and show you my cooking skills!"
"No, no, just feed me meatballs."
Finally, at Nashida's strong request, Liu Bai had no choice but to pick up the meatballs for her to eat.
These meatballs were all put into the pot to cook, and Liu Bai simply picked them up, so he was not affected by the god-level cooking skills.
Normally, after eating three meatballs, Nashida should have been full, but in order to let Liu Bai feed her more, she began to secretly use elemental power to promote digestion.
As a demon god, such things are very simple.
So until everyone was full, Nashida was still being fed by Liu Bai.
"As expected of a god, you may look very young, but you have a big appetite..."
Kamisato Ayaka thought silently in her heart.
……
After several days of traveling, Ying and her companions finally obtained a pass from Kujo Kamajima, which allowed them to be used throughout the Inazuma region with special approval from the Tenryo Bugyo.
At this time, Ying and the others also started to inquire about the location of Mulou Tea House and decided to go meet Thomas.
Thomas said he had the ability to introduce them to General Lei Dian.
Although she has already met her brother, this does not hinder Ying's journey and purpose. The Seven Gods are the most powerful existences in Teyvat except for Sky Island, and the information they possess is also of interest to Ying.
She wanted to know the relationship between her brother and Kanreya and the Abyss Cult.
Because of their experiences in Mondstadt and Liyue, they all subconsciously believed that gods were not so easy to see... maybe they were easy to see, but they might not be able to recognize them even if they saw them.
After some inquiries, the three of them finally arrived at the door of Mulou Tea House together.
Calculating the time, Thomas felt that if Ying and the others were all right, they would be able to reach the Mulou Tea House today, so he came to the tea house early in the morning and waited.
"Finally, we're here. Where's Thomas? Where's Thomas?"
With the seal given to them by Thomas, Ying and the others successfully entered the Mulou Tea Room. Paimon couldn't help but look around and called Thomas's name.
"Eh? Didn't Thomas keep his promise?"
Finding that he could not find Thomas' voice at all and no one responded to his call, Paimon looked at Ying and Krevie with some confusion.
"Who said I didn't keep my promise? Wasn't I always in front of you?"
At this moment, Thomas' voice suddenly rang out.
Ying and the others looked in the direction of the sound, and finally their eyes fell on a dog squatting on the counter.
"What, what's going on! Did the dog talk?!"
Paimon's eyes widened with fear, and Ying beside him subconsciously raised his hands to protect himself.
"Hahaha, there's nothing to be surprised about. This is the first time you've seen me like this, right?"
Thomas's voice continued to come from that side.
"Thoma is...a dog?"
Ying looked at Paimon and Klevi in disbelief.
"Hmm...haven't you seen anything like this in Liyue?"
Thomas' voice sounded doubtful, but the dog on the counter sat there without moving.
